Long story short: I am absolutely inexperienced with Linux distros but made the switch from Windows a bit more than a year ago. Right now, everyone’s talking about Baldur’s Gate 3, including a lot of the podcasts and shows I follow: since I never experienced the OG games, I wanted to try them out. They were on sale on GOG, and I had previously set up Lutris so that it interfaced directly with it. But the game refuses to start. Every installation method I tried has miserably failed at some point or another, and when it didn’t, the game just won’t boot up (either in Lutris or out of it). I’m out of options and I have asked for a refund. Is the situation with the Steam versions any different?Am I missing something? Help!

    Same here, I love what Lutris has done and it’s made a ton of games way easier to run on Linux, but Heroic has given me that “download and click play” feel that I missed from Windows. It abstracts away a lot of the process but still leaves ways to configure it heavily for those who need.

    Am a fan of the simple by default, powerful when needed approach.
